This is my 24th year of teaching full-time and my 19th year at Short Pump Elementary School. I have three sons, each of whom attended Short Pump Elementary School K-5. All three graduated from the University of Virginia. Two live and work in Miami. One lives in Henrico. I graduated from the College of William and Mary and earned my Masters in Teaching from the University of Virginia. My husband is an attorney.

I love teaching fifth-graders at Short Pump Elementary, and I especially love reading, writing, and math.  I enjoy fifth-grade students in particular. They come to me with a multitude of skills and talents, and I help them gain more skills, maturity,  and independence during their final year of elementary school.

In my free time I like to read, exercise, watch sporting events, watch movies, and knit.

Let's work together to make this a great year!
